Highly modified 997 Turbo correction

[Auto Concierge]

This car was especially fun to do because if I had the means(money) this is almost exactly how I would have Sharkwerks do the car.

08 Porsche Turbo EVOMS 700 horsepower kit
PASM coilover suspension
HRE C-21 wheels
Cargraphic exhaust
FVD steering wheel
Short shift kit
Floating rotors
End links
Factory front spoiler aero kit
997 GT-2 side skirts(paint to match)
Tech art Spoiler II rear deck lid/wing


The wheels were really bad,and wheels with a polished un-clearcoated lip are sensitive to harsh cleaners. Normally I would use P & S brake buster or P21s gel for safety as I did not have the option to dismount the wheels.



So I used a new beta sample of Gloss-it wheel gel which is safe but has more bite to it without the fear of an etch mark,so cleaning resumed with a combo of EZ Detail brush and Ace power stick the results were great.





Now this car is only a couple of months old but the usual dealership induced machine holograms and RIDS were there,also the paint work to the wing and front splitter had a ton of left over sand scratches and compound swirls the correction required Megs 105 with a wool pad and Gloss-it EVP,then foam compounding with Gloss-it evolution cut followed by Megs new finishing polish 205 which I think is better than Ultrafina especially on soft paints.

I love it!!!!
Also love the color.
I love the Auto tranny. Even without upgrades, the 997 goes to 60 in 3.2 seconds.!!!!!!

Wonderful! What was your LSP?

Gloss-it Signature sealant topped with Gloss-it Concorso really brings out the wetness even on this Gt Silver color.

Not guna lie.... thats pretty neat! I would normally probably say that it needs a manual transmission but the paddles might be able to help with that... haha

Fantastic work Bob, the paint cant hide from metal halides and the Fenix LED.

I keep getting more and more tempted by these gloss-it products. I might have to break down and try them.

That car is ridiculous 700hp. Maybe a manual trans could not shift fast enough to make that power worth while.

hey bob, once again thanks ever so much. I delivered the car today and the customer was over-the-moon... He couldn't believe how it looked. It's one thing to detail but it's another thing entirely to correct things like paint on after-market wings. I no longer have to worry so much about getting body work done so much because you'll always make it look good.... For magazines, shows, TV stuff we may not always be the "fastest" car at the events but we sure are the cleanest!

Once again you came through for us (as always) and we're lucky to have you out here in the Bay Area. Please do get better soon and stay OFF the knee

For those interested this is what these cars look/sound like:

once again thanks to the Bob "meister".... We delivered the car to the customer today and of course he was blown away by how it looked Having you do paint correction (yes it sucks to have such awful body shops in our area) on that wing really made a difference under the bright sun light today.

Seriously we're so lucky to have you in our area and I'll tell you one thing whenever we show up to the track, a magazine shoot, a show, a TV thing or any other event we may not always be the fastest but we sure do have the best looking paint! Get better soon mate and stay off of the knee (at least for a bit!)....
